[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wulfie66:
So, I just ordered a 5th gen from amazon for $40 and my question is this, once I root it and remove the ads from the lockscreen using Rootjunky's supertool, should I flash CM12.1 or SlimLP via flashfire? Does flashfire even support flashing CM12.1 on 5.1.1? And should I use the 'mini' gapps that comes with SlimLP or the 'pico' gapps that's recommended for CM12.1?
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shabuboy:
you can flash CM12.1 with flashfire, but there have been some people which had issues, read the forum.

If you are on 5.0.x, do not upgrade, less chance to brick it. If on 5.1.1. do not downgrade at all!

Use the gapps recommended with each ROM

[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pond-life:
If you are flashing custom ROM don't bother removing the lock screen ads as they won't be there anyway.
[BlackBerry Priv] senectus:
The HUB currently does not behave like a hub properly, ie if you multiple email accounts in the hub and you open one of them by going directly to the account then "back" out or "home" out, then open the HUB (expecting to see the "hub" aggregated view) it now shows me the last email account i was in. Not the proper HUB view.

If I kill the app and restart the HUB it works as expected, until i open an email account directly.

I've lodged a report on it, hopefully they can resolve the issue. But until then does anyone know of a "task killer" app that will allow me to set it up to only kill the hub app and only whenever the screen is locked (and only once) . I dont want to have to think about it for perform extra steps... i just want it to give me something close to the behaviour I expect...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veid71:
this is probably an easy question to answer but im not sure so i installed titanium backup and made a backup of all my apps and i moved the backup to my sd card and i flashed a new rom so all of the info was wiped and now i cant move it back onto the phone because i dont have enough storage and everytime i make a backup of 1 app to see where it backs up to it backs it up to my device storage so is there any way to move the back up i made before to the titanium app so that i can just put all my apps back on there the way they were supposed to be?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] painiac:
Yes, but I advise you to keep the backups on your external SDcard so they don't get wiped out later.

After each time you do a fresh ROM install: reinstall and open Titanium backup, go to menu, then preferences. Scroll down a bit to "backup Folder Location". You can either browse to it, or the easier way is to click "Detect" and scan "Whole Device". It will find the location of your backups, then just click "use the current folder"

Use Android As A Microphone For Your PC​

We all have that one friend in the skype call who always sounds like they're driving a tractor through a wind tunnel while eating a bag of stale chips. No matter how much you tell them to figure out their audio issues, they insist that they have a $300 microphone and the problem must be on my end. Ok well first of all, not every high end mic is going to sound good on skype. Sometimes the five dollar USB mic you got in the sale bin at "Randy's Electronics and Cat Food" will sound better than your high end recording mic.

When it comes to skype, you want a mic that has good noise canceling so I don't have to listen to my echo coming out of your speakers. You also want something that will work at various distances so you don't have to put the mic right up to your face. Turn out that's exactly what Android mics are designed for. This makes your phone one of the best microphones to use for skype and other voice chat stuff.

You can use an app that will let you hook up your Android phone to your computer VIA Bluetooth or USB. Your computer will then recognize it as a mic input. Then in skype, you'll just want to change your audio settings to use your phone as the mic.

[IMG="WO Mic Logo"]http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3642247&stc=1&d=1455200848[/IMG]​

The app that you'll want to use is called WO Mic. You'll be able to connect to your PC via Bluetooth, USB or WiFi. This app is great and will have barely any lag.

Now you should be able to get much better audio in your skype calls.

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gavin19:
I used CyanogenMod as soon as the ROM was available so I could benefit from 5.1.x. The only issue I had was with reliable call recording. I tried an Xposed module and a ton of different apps, but they all had issues (too low volume/only recording one side of call/recording only part of the call/not recording at all).

After this, I switched over to the stock-based ROMs like Prism. Given it's discontinued and CM has now moved on to Marshmallow, I'd like to go back to CM (or any CM-based ROM).

Question is, is it possible to use the stock ASUS dialler, with native call recording, with CM?

Thanks.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blazzer12:
To the best of my knowledge proper call recording has something to do with the kernel itself. Devs need to find a way but call recording might not be a top priority for them now. Too bad I am also using Prism Barebones. Hope someone fills the gap left by PB.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android lover 2000:
As u said u were using prism and left it only because it was discontinued then go for echoe rom

It is a good stock based rom with awesome battery, performance and tweaks , then i will recommend you echoe rom

It is available for both Z008 and Z00Aso no need to worry about support you might even get the marshmallow beta stock rom in Z00A

Just google it up

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nottoosmart:
So excited about getting my new phone today but have a question prior to opening just to be prepared. What is the best process to ensure the battery health when first opening device? Do I charge the device fully prior to turning it on for the first time or do I let the battery drain fully before I put it on the charger? I know this is an age old discussion but not sure with these new phones how to best handle it.

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RidinNerdy:
I honestly used it took it died, then I charged it all the way to 100 (never leave overnight) then I let it die all the way, then charge again.. So far good battery life

That was after my first full charge[emoji4]
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nottoosmart:
Thanks. Ill do that. I love the battery stats you getting and that's what I want!!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solutions Etcetera:
That is the worst thing you can do. These aren't NiCads. LiIon batteries do not like to be fully discharged.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rorymarsh:
You'll likely find that the battery will be charged to roughly 40%. This is considered the ideal amount of charge for long-term storage. People often still worry about memory effects of batteries, harping back to the days of older battery types such as Ni-Cad and some Ni-Mh batteries but the same isn't true for Li-ion or Li-Pol batteries.

The one thing to absolutely try to avoid is letting the battery run down to flat. Li-ion batteries will degrade quicker over time if discharged fully, which is also why devices have a built-in "buffer" amount when you run the battery down to avoid damaging them.

Honestly, the main issue for your battery is heat, and large drops or knocks. Try and keep it cool and never let it die on you!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
You don't need to do anything special, just use it. One thing you should definitely not do is completely discharge the battery though. You should also refrain from keeping the device connected to a charger once it's reached full charge, keeping the battery at peak voltage decreases the long-term battery life. Here's a couple of really helpful articles:

http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries

http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/do_and_dont_battery_table
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l_stevens:
Just a point of info: Phone batteries don't LET you completely discharge. Once your phone shuts down (afer running "out" of battery, the battery still has some level of charge left.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
That is right, but if you continue to power the device on in order to drain it more you'll cause problems. It's virtually impossible to completely drain one of these batteries, it actually powers down at something like 50% of its true capacity, because if it gets much lower than this it can cause irreparable damage. If you do somehow manage to drain one of these batteries past that magical point (by the methods I described above), it will simply not power on again because there's a minimum amount of voltage required.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cleva1:
Interesting. I normally charge my devices while I sleep so when I wake up they are fully charged. Once I'm up I'm ready to go and have a full charge not wake up to charge the device and wait for it to reach capacity idk. I haven't had any issues in any phone I've had while charging it while I sleep at night
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
It just basically reduces the capacity of the battery over time. I charge in the evening before bed, it only drops a couple of percent overnight thanks to doze.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cleva1:
With my Nexus like now I'm in bed with 77% battery, I'm usually on my device until I fall asleep, my BlackBerry has great standby time. With doze, I don't lose much battery if any and since the phone recharges so fast. I'm rarely "dead" enough to warrant me charging it while I sleep like say my note four etc. But this is food for thought in regards to charging

Mine mps_code.dat have 3 letters in it i-e 'TNL' which is csc i think. And imei is in efs1 and efs2 partition you can see in pit analysis thread google it if you don't know anout this thread.

Only thing which you can do is give phone to repair shop they have boxes and tools which can write imei. Or take backup of efs1 efs2 and efs of other phone and restore it in your phone.you do backup/restore using partition backup app in playstore by wanam.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yetep:
Thanks for your reply. I will try to locate someone else I know with an S3 and pull their EFS - hopefully something will happen that's of benefit.

In the meantime, I'll focus on this as hard as I can to get it sorted. I've managed to go from having the IMEI reading as a random 0049 one, to "Null/Null" which means it HAS been written to (or does in my mind), just with nothing rather than the correct number.

If I get anywhere I'll update this thread, and if im successful in the repair I'll create a How-To based on what I did.

Cheers
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] konsolen:

I had the same problem days ago and I couldn't connect to sim network.

What I did was flash stock rom using odin and then a custom modem and a custom kernel I found in the internet. At the end it gave me a normal imei number (not the 0049bulls@%) but it wasn't my original imei... nevertheless it can connect now without any issues :) .

Hey bro,

Do you remember specifically what ROM, kernel and modem you flashed? Ive tried this with no luck so interested in trying your combination.

Cheers
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jairolas:
Ok guys this is exactly what I did:

1- backup all your data.

2- download a stock 4.3 jellybean rom from sammobile (I used the Trinidad and Tobago version because I live in Mexico but that shouldn't matter), autoroot cf for i9300 4.3 from their website and twrp 2.8 recovery, again from their website.

3- download this especial kernel and this modem:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/tky93zds14kt1hz/Patched_XXUGMK6_modem.zip.zip?dl=0

4- Proceed to flash stock 4.3 rom using odin 3.07.

5- After stock rom is installed flash the root cf file and recovery tar using odin.

6- Now that you have a rooted stock rom with custom recovery proceed to flash both the especial kernel zip and the modem zip using twrp recovery.

7- You should now be able to connect network.

Good luck.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yetep:
Hey mate,

I started the process of this today, using a stock samsung FW that I updated to using Kies.

Unfortunately the end result is the same, 0049 IMEI number.

What I'll do is I'll download the T&T 4.3 from Sammobile and see if that makes any difference.

Thanks again,
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yetep:
Hey hey,

Right unfortunately all of the above doesnt solve any issues im having with the IMEI.

What I'm ultimately trying to do is find out a way to fix this, without having to use third-party hardware or a samsung service station.

The real reason is that I don't think the average user should have to go that extent to fix this - it's ultimately Samsung's fault.

Android is designed to be customisable allowing users to go up/down versions as they please (provided it's compatible with the hardware of their phone).

Just a thought -

is there any possible way to "bake" the old style EFS into a newer rom?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yetep:
Hey All (that are viewing this).

The above procedure didn't work. I have managed to get the IMEI to change from 0049 to NULL/NULL and back again at will using a blank EFS restore file that I've got, however can't figure out what and how to change the files WITHIN the EFS restore to the correct IMEI etc.

I'll continue my search and if I come across anything, I'll let you all know on here and create a How-To.

Cheers

Since I've had this phone I've noticed that my WiFi signal is always weak at my house unless I'm right by my router. Well the other day I was upstairs which is not by the router and I took my TPU case off to put my sd card in and noticed that I had full WiFi bars. Since then I've been testing the WiFi by taking the case off and putting it back on around different parts of my house and its definitely the case. I have great signal with it off and as soon as I put it back on it takes my signal down to either nothing or the dot at the bottom of the WiFi signal sometimes maybe the dot and one bar. I've tried this like 50 times just to make sure this is what's wrong. Even if I cup my hand around the top half of the back of the phone it cuts my WiFi signal down to nothing. Is anybody else having this problem or do I have defective wifi on this device? There is no way I'm using this phone without having the TPU case on it and getting it all scratched up.
